The Crown Princess is reborn and returns to subvert the world

Chapter 43 The white jade left by Concubine Rong

Small courtyard on the mountainside.

When Ji Xiang woke up, he saw an old woman's face right in front of him. It was the face of the old woman selling tea at the roadside stall.

Seeing Jixiang wake up, the old woman brought a bowl of medicine from her side: "Drink the medicine."

What's the meaning? Make yourself fascinated first, and then give you medicine. You won't be given cartilage powder or something like that, right?

Ji Xiang's face was cold: "Who are you and why do you want to harm me?" She struggled to get up and found that her strength seemed to have been drained, and her body was extremely heavy. Has cartilage powder been used? She moved as much as she could and found that the effects of the drug she had taken before were still there, so she relaxed a little.

His body was weak, but his eyes were still as usual. Ji Xiang took a quick look around and saw that the furnishings in the low wooden house were simple, but the pair of deer antlers hanging on the wall were rough and flamboyant, which was in sharp contrast to the cramped cabin.

She and the old woman were the only ones in the room. Tian Muyu, Xiong Er and others were not there, and neither was Erya.

Jixiang: “Where are my companions and them?”

The old woman had no expression on her face: "Drink the medicine!"

The smell of the medicine in the bowl has already reached the nose, and it is undoubtedly the antidote.

Ji Xiang drank up the medicine obediently.

The old woman curled her lips, revealed a sneer, and walked away.

Ji Xiang secretly complained that it was not good, so he moved to get off the kang, but found that his legs could not move. But there is no problem with the medicine smelling by itself!

After savoring the aroma of the medicine left in her mouth, Ji Xiang immediately realized something was wrong. She wished she could give herself a slap. How could someone who claimed to be a wizard of Chinese medicine in her previous life fall for the trap of an old woman in this ancient time?

This old woman is not simple! Although the antidote she drank for herself was the correct antidote, she had used two of the medicines. Both of them had a light taste and it was impossible for ordinary people to smell them.

But the effect of the medicine that had been modified in this way obviously went in the opposite direction, so when she drank the medicine, not only did she not get rid of the previous drug, it was also equivalent to drinking another set of cartilage powder.

The alarm bell was ringing in her heart, and Ji Xiang did not dare to be careless again. She closed her eyes and concentrated on entering the space to get the antidote.

There was a bang and a man entered the house.

The man looked at Jixiang for a long time and said, "Take out all the things you got in Granny Yan's house."

Is this person from Granny Yan? ! Is the person behind Granny Yan also in the capital?

When a man sees good luck and is silent, he starts searching.

Jixiang: "I don't know who Granny Yan is."

The man snorted coldly: "Do you think I will believe you?"

Ji Xiang: "I am the legitimate daughter of Ji Ruian from Ji Mansion in the northwest, and I am also the current crown prince. Ji Xiang, you can call me Miss Ji."

I originally thought that the man would restrain himself when he heard Jixiang reveal his identity, but unexpectedly, it only encouraged him to control Jixiang.

He stepped forward roughly to pull Ji Xiang's arm.

Seeing that the man was about to touch him, Jixiang shouted: "Tian Muyu! Erya, Fu Lai!"

Suddenly a figure flew in from the window.

The man's hand was cut with a sword, and blood immediately dripped from it.

The man looked at Tian Muyu who was protecting Ji Xiang in surprise: "Fourth Prince!"

Jixiang is surprised, do they know each other?

Tian Muyu didn't look good on the man. The sword in his hand was pointed directly at the man's throat: "Don't touch her!"

Man: “She has Granny Yan’s things in her hand!”

Tian Muyu: "I told you not to touch her!"

At this time, Tian Muyu completely lost his usual cowardly appearance in front of Ji Xiang. His eyes were spitting fire, his face was red, and he wished he could kill the man in front of him with a sword.

When the old woman heard the noise, she came in in panic and stopped in front of the man: "Your Majesty, please spare his life for the sake of this old slave~" She quickly bandaged the man's injured wound.

The man was stubborn: "Aunt, don't stop him and let him stab me to death with a sword! You have sacrificed so much for him over the years. You can see clearly that this is what he did to you!"

Ji Xiang was curious, what happened while she was knocked unconscious? ! What happened between these three people?

Tian Muyu: "What you said are all one-sided. My mother and concubine never left me a single word, let alone my grandfather, so I don't believe what you say."

The man stomped his feet angrily: "Aunt!"

The old woman looked at Tian Muyu intently, her eyes full of sincerity and love: "My lord, you were only a three-year-old child at that time, so the princess would naturally not say anything to you. But the old slave is the princess's personal maid. He has been taking care of her since she was born."

Tian Muyu: "Both my grandfather and my father said that my mother-in-law is a weak-tempered woman and not like what you said. Such a person is not my mother-in-law."

Seeing that Tian Muyu still didn't believe her words, the old woman sighed and turned to Ji Xiang behind Tian Muyu, "Since the prince doesn't believe me, then you and your people can leave, but she must stay."

Tian Muyu: "Impossible! She must go with me."

Old woman: "She touched the princess's things and she can't leave!"

Ji Xiang's heart skipped a beat. What do you mean? Are the things in Grandma Yan's basement theirs? But how could so much gold and silver be related to a princess who had died many years ago?

Jixiang quickly called up the information about Tian Muyu's mother and concubine in his mind: Concubine Rong, whom she met by chance when the emperor was still a prince, went south to the south of the Yangtze River. She was the legitimate daughter of the Hou family of Jiangnan, and later married into the prince's palace as a side concubine.

At that time, the prince ascended the throne and was given a concubine. Two months later, he gave birth to a son, who became the fourth prince. Because of this double happiness, he became even more favored by the emperor.

Jixiang pushed Tian Muyu away and looked at the old woman: "Mother-in-law, you said that I touched the princess's things, do you know what exactly I touched the princess's things?"

The old woman's face froze and she couldn't answer for a while.

Tian Muyu shouted angrily: "How dare you talk nonsense and say, who are you?" He pointed the sword at the old woman's throat, "Who asked you to attack us? Where are those people?!"

It was obvious that Tian Muyu did not trust the two people in front of him.

While the old woman looked hesitantly, the man behind her sneered.

Man: "If I had known that I was going to support such a prince, I would rather go home and fish for a living than wade into such muddy waters!"

Old woman: "Aqiang, don't talk nonsense."

Ji Xiang observed the expressions of the two of them: "Your Majesty, I heard that the mother-in-law in front of you has something to do with you?"

Tian Muyu snorted coldly: "She claims to be my mother's personal attendant."

Jixiang: "Is there any evidence?"

Tian Muyu threw a jade pendant to Ji Xiang: "An ordinary piece of white jade."

Jixiang picked up the jade pendant and looked at it. Sure enough, it was something that had aged well. Although it looked ordinary, it felt warm and silky to the touch, indicating that it had been played with frequently.

Grandma didn't want the master's belongings to be touched by a strange woman, so she stepped forward to snatch it away, but Ji Xiang dodged it.

Just as Jixiang hid the jade pendant behind his back, he suddenly felt a surge of heat in his hand holding the jade pendant, running along his arms and shoulders and straight to his forehead.

Soon, a picture appeared in front of Ji Xiang's eyes. A graceful and luxurious woman was lingering on the hospital bed. She weakly took off the jade pendant from her waist and handed it to the grandma who was waiting beside her. She then forced herself to explain something to her.

The grandma took the jade pendant with tears streaming down her face and knelt down in front of the woman. She looked exactly like the old woman in front of her when she was young.

Ji Xiang wanted to get closer to see the appearance of the jade pendant, but he didn't want the scene in front of him to suddenly disappear, and the heat flow above his head to return along the original path.
